SWNOVELS Chapter 136: Top Tier Students
Well, I wanted to only use my sword for this fight, but this stupid spider seemed to have sensed something and was now continuously shooting balls of web at me. It had literally turned around and began firing at me like some kind of machine gun. Looking at the current situation, I guess I have no choice but to use magic…
I waved my hand and created five fireballs, and fired them in secession straight at the spider. It quickly tried to dodge to the side, but unfortunately for it, I now have enough control over my own magic to direct the spell in any direction I wanted. Because of this, the situation between us had reversed. Instead of me having to run and dodge the spider's webbing, the spider had to try to run and dodge my fireballs. Unlucky for it, my spells were much faster than they could run. In no time at all, all five fireballs smashed into the spider.
After dusting my hands off, I looked at the now cured spider and smiled. "That was my first monster. But isn't this test a little too easy?" I couldn't help but think how easy this test was going to be. "Let's first find a place to stay for the night. Then I will just use a massive aoe spell and clear the whole area out."
I originally wanted to practice a little, but there was no point with monsters of this level. It would be much easier for me to wipe them all out in one go. To be honest, I was more worried about Marsil and Emily. They were both guarding our tents, waiting for us. I hoped no one messes with them while we were gone. Marsil, especially since she was half-elf. Of course, if someone did try to mess with them, I would find and beat whoever did so within an inch of their life.
I guess you could say my mentality was no longer what it was. I only cared for my loved ones now, and all others could basically take a hike. I think after being under Ruth's care for so long, her way of thinking had soon become my own. But I must say that she is very loving and caring towards me. I will make sure to have plenty of grandchildren for her later on.
This, of course, did not just include Blake. In this world, there was nothing magic could not do. This meant that even Alissa and I could have a child together. I really should stop thinking about this stuff. It really makes me blush! "Ahh! Okay, cave, cave!"
I walked around a bit and killed a few monsters here and there. By the time I found a decent cave, I had already reached the number of monsters I needed to kill. The clave was not too deep, but it was perfect for a place to rest for a while. I made a small camp inside and blocked it off from the outside before making a few markers as a reminder of where it was before deciding to take care of business.

"What is this little girl doing?" one of the elders asked as he watched Rei on the screen.
"It seems she is casting some kind of spell." another elder replied.
"I can see that, but why is she casting a spell?" the elder from before was perplexed at why Rei had suddenly begun waving her hand about.
"You old fools are idiots. Did you not get the notice that we were getting a few top-tier students this year?" A young woman walked up. She was around thirty years of age, but her youth and beauty were still there, masking her look much younger.
"Humph! What kind of top-tier student could we get out of fresh bat…. Holy Shit! What the fuck did she just do!" The elder, who was about to speak in disdain, eyes almost fell out when he saw a massive magic circle appear, and then the entire forest turned into a sea of blood. The counter next to a certain girl's name began to rise without stopping. 100,200,500, 800, until finally 1000. "This… This… This hasn't happened since that woman appeared!"
"Did I not say a few top-tier students. Look at the names below hers." The young woman smiled mockingly as she sat down. "Not even you old fogeys could do what they are doing."
On the screen, two numbers next to two other names were steadily rising. Not as quickly as the first, but they were already in the four hundreds. The elders all sighed, looking at the numbers rising as if their test was a simple baby's game. "Who are these kids?" One of the elders finally asked.
"Rei Lancaster, Able Ronstine, and Alissa Lancaster. From what I understand. Rei Lancaster is Able's fiance, while Alissa Lancaster is Rei's concubine..." The young woman explained lightly. She just so happened to be one of the ones to be at Rei's birthday party.
"Wait, this does not seem right. How does a girl have a concubine that is a girl?" One of the old elders asked. He seemed very confused about this.
"She likes both men and women. It seems that Alissa Lancaster fell in love with Rei Lancaster. The two started off as best friends." The young woman answered.contemporary romance
"I see… So what does this mean for bedroom activities? Does this Able Ronstine get to jo..." The old man was cut off as a white delicate hand slammed the table in front of her. "Old man, get your head out of your pants."

Looking at the destroyed landscape in front of me, I stretched my arms up into the air, feeling much better about sleeping outside by myself. "Now to get some quality shut-eye!" I had already swept the area a few times just to confirm no more monsters were located in my area. Just knowing this set my nerves at ease. The last thing I wanted was to end up needing to stay awake all night worrying I might be attacked. "Hopefully, I won't have any wet dreams tonight..."
